shrcwdness, and capabilities shine like
electric lights in our own eyes, while our
defects are invisible to lis, and do not
seem to exist, and if we could only get
things to work our way and by our direc-
tions there would be no use Of heaven
or necessity Of the other place.
After looking over all these incongrul-
ties. the club has come to the conclusion
the great need of the hour is for every
man, woman and child 10 attend to his
or her own special business, and the
is to let other people attend to
their own special business, and each will
have plenty to do. 1t is impossible for
any one man to fill every position, and
no one need be unemployed if he prop.
erly attends his own calling, and let
others have the opportunity Of doing the
same thing. And may the good Master
help them and us 10 do it.

No Strikes i'll China.

The New York Sua has published au
interview with Mr.. Licw, member Of
the Chinese Consulate, in which the
statement is made that there are no labor
strikes in China. Mr.. Liew says that
laborers are content because they do not
lack employment, get what they earn,
and support themselves in a way that
sati. fies them upon what they get. The
lowest class of aborcrs in city earn ten
cents day. in the agricultural districts,
where the hours are longer and the work
harder, they earn twenty cents. Skilled
workmen sometimes earn from thirty to
forty cents. Still the Chinese laborer is
represented as contented and happy.
His condition is made endurable by the
fact that ore dime in China is equal in
purchasing power to one dollar in this
country. Assuming that Mr.. Lew
speaks truly, the outlook for = large
trade with China is not good. How can
dollar country export to dime coun-
try? How can artisans who make from
three 10 five dollars a day in the United
States afford to make goods for people
who earn but thirty or forty cents?
1t is not probable. however, that ten
cents will buy as much of anything in
China as dollar will in the United
States. Laborers live on ten cents day
because they consume things ten cents
will buy. The Chinese measure their
cloth before they cut their coat. Know
ing how much cloth they have they
make the best coat they can. 1t would
not answer any purpose at all in any
other country, but in China, as all coats
are alike, they are contented with what
they have. This contentment explains
the secret of Chinese immobility. Their
civilization reached q certain standard
thousands of years ago, and has remained
stationary ever since. There is compar
atively no such thing as progress in
China. They do not see the Use in pro.
crossing. Why ride forty miles an hour
when they have time to accomplish the
Journey at one tenth the rate? If the
Chinese laborer were not quite 50 con-
tented on ten cents Il day there would be
more hope of his improving his condi
tion.-.Sm Francisco call.

We noticed that Il number OF grape
vines had been planted in the gard, and,
upon further examination, found several

Tria! by Jury.

Trial by Jury was introduced into Eng.
land during the Saxon heptarchy, men
ton being made Of six Welsh and six
Ang!o.Saxon freemen appointed to try
causes between the English and Welsh
men OF property, and made responsible
with their whole estates, real and per-
sonal, for false verdicts. BY most
authorities the institution of jurics is
ascribcd TO Alfred, about SSG. In Mag.
ma Charta, juries were insisted on as the
great bulwark Of TIE peoples liberty.
According to statute IS, Edward III,
1853, it was provided that "when either
party is an alien born, the jury will be

that in early times the suitors used TO
feed the jury impancled in their action,
and hence arose tie common law of de.
nying sustenance to a jury after the hear
ing of the evidence. a jury may be de-
tanned during the pleasure of the judge if
they cannot agree upon verdict; and
may be confined without meat, drink or
fire, candle light excepted, until they are
unanimous. Some jurors have been
fined for having fruit in their pockets
